The Railway Bar & Steam Dining

Here we go folks yesss a rant,
but I'm sorry needs to be said, as you all know, well the people WHO KNOW US!!, We had bought the bar just over about 2 years ago & total revamped the place & tried to keep those parts of history visible, & to try our best to make this a people's pub/bar for everyone, no matter who or what you where & from the start we had every hurdle put down in front of us, from the local council, environmental agencies, health & safety, etc... & yet not 1 inspection was ever done in that place from any other body's prior to us taking this over.
We put or heart & souls into it ,
to make this a community pub/bar restaurant. The Railway bar was still OUR bar & was in the process of being leased to Abjan & yet we have yet to see or hear from any of our local so called councillors.
We have provided jobs & a community place were I myself have had to listen to people with mental or suicidal thoughts & general problems from punters/people who just needed a chat or listening ear .
We are totally devastated 💔 heart broken to sit back and listen to all these rumours from people that thrive from other people's misfortune. They never take into consideration the hard work ,effort, determination, & struggles that we have been through to get where we are. But listen from the horses mouth don't you worry as (Arnie said I'll / we'll be back ) from Monday we'll be putting plans in place to see the bar back open ASAP.
So to those who created this devastation,,, you'll not beat us !!!!
We would just like to thank all our loyal customers/ family as we have been reminded from the start not only did we buy a bar we bought a FAMILY🍺🍻
Thankyou for all your kind words & support,
From Barry ,Trish , Debbie & myself.
It means alot.

To Our Valued Customers and Supporters,

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of our beloved pub and restaurant. This journey, filled with countless memories, has come to an unexpected end. Our establishment, once a place of joy and community, has fallen victim to a devastating act of organised hate.

This venue was more than just a business; it was a piece of history, a place that brought people together and created lasting memories. We are shattered and deeply saddened to see it destroyed. Your favorite local pub, a place that brought so much happiness to so many, has been brought to its knees. We were striving to grow, offering a wide variety of food and drinks, and our dedicated staff worked tirelessly to ensure every customer left with a smile. So many people depended on this place, our staff, our neighbors, and our community as a whole.

It is heartbreaking to see this chapter end in such a tragic way. No matter our skin color or background, we all share the same goal: to make a living, provide for our families, and offer a space where people can enjoy their time together.

As a young Nepalese-British individual, born into a Hindu family, raised and educated in Belfast, I never imagined that my skin color and religion would make us a target for such a hateful act. My sole intention was to run a business, provide jobs, and make a modest living. Unfortunately, the reality we faced was beyond anything I could have imagined.

While this has been a painful experience, I sincerely hope that this crime marks the end of such hatred. The world is vast and full of hope, and we must continue to look forward.

Thank you all for your unwavering support.
